Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a robotic system including one or more self-propelled motorized vehicles (SPMV) whose motion is controlled in accordance with electronic image data acquired by one or more observing camera(s) configured to image a scene including the SPMV. In some embodiments, the SPMV includes one or more on-board lights, and the SPMV is operated according to analyzing images acquired by the observing camera before and after an illumination transition of one or more of the point lights. Some embodiments relate techniques to computer gaming and/or to stereoscopic image processing techniques.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a robotic system including one or more self-propelled motorized vehicles 120 (SPMV) whose motion is controlled in accordance with electronic image data acquired by one or more observing camera(s) 110 configured to image a scene including the SPMV 120. In some embodiments, the SPMV includes one or more on-board lights 124, and the SPMV is operated according to analyzing images acquired by the observing camera before and after an illumination transition of one or more of the point-lights. Some embodiments relate techniques to computer gaming and/or to stereoscopic image processing techniques.

Abstract: A run-time environment for use with multiple multi-player, networked games and simulations includes a game model which defines the specifics of a game and a game engine which runs the game defined in the game model. The game model includes a database which stores the objects and their properties (properties include communicable properties) as well as the rules of the specific game which are to be executed on the objects and their properties. The game engine includes a rule evaluator, a database engine, a triggering mechanism and a communication unit. The rule evaluator evaluates the rules thereby changing the properties. The database engine updates the database whenever a property is changed. The triggering mechanism activates the rule evaluator whenever database engine changes a property. The communication unit is activated by the triggering mechanism whenever a communicable property changes and transmits the changed communicable property to another simulation unit.
